An Issue From: "Thoughts Generation"

The place of the current thought:
Eritrea (on the upper eastern part of the Horn of Africa).On the main street in the capital city of Asmara.

The time:
Just three years after Eritrea independence from Ethiopia on 1991.
The independence was acheived through an armed struggle lasted for 30 years.

The occation:
As a journalist working 30 years on this field,10 of them in Eritrea alone,I used to gather the topics for my job from the streets,the people,the Europian weather those days,the smelling of the national feelings and the experience of a revolutionary front changed cloths,cars and of course seats and secretaries.

The scene:
An old field fighter,used to leave his camp at the morning to wander across the Independent Street.He crossed towards the same place ouside the Cathedral where he used to stand upside down for a while several times a day.
His hands on the earth and his feet on the Cathedral`s wall he seemed to be more happy than when he faced this picture standing on his feet.He looked deeply at the people,the buildings,the cars and whatever or whoever there passed by.He changed this position,each time he got satisfied.The last time he got satisfied was just half an hour after the sun set.He stood up and walked his head waved left and right.

There was a deep sorrow and regret on his eyes.

He had his last attitude every day,before his daily 4 doubles congnac.He left his last joke on the audients`ears in the last bar on his way to his camp.

The deep sorrow and regret on his eyes fastened his steps on the road.

Psycho Analysis:
Some people thought that he was mad.My friends thought that too.Even some of my friends the fighters and the veterans thought the same way.
I was not.I never thought that he was a psychopathic.

I am so convinced that the up-side-down veteran is pretty sane,more than me and my various friends without prejudice.

The up-side-down veteran worked out the comming deterioration his own way.He declared his silent point of view his own way.Things seemed to him as not normal at all.The events seemed to that standard pretty bad than his expectations.The blood of about sixty thousands of his comrades the martyres, seemed as run to waste.The beutiful picture of the independence he dreamt about during his hard long struggle was changed into something false.Humans seemed to him as walking on their heads.Builings and trees as standing the opposite way. Every thing was not standing, walking or sitting right.That`s exactly what he was viewing actually.So he had strong desire as to see things the right way they are.

Now,would you like to stand upside down when ever you see things are running wrong,to see them running right?

Try it sometimes as a remedy and have fun and pleasure.
